Hey all. For some time recently I have been considering taking up learning the electric guitar. Now, I've been looking at some guitars using some good guitar sites, YouTube and getting the prices of my local music shop and eBay. One I have come up with which I like is a Epiphone Les Paul Gibson Custom. Now, like I said, my only knowledge of it comes from sites and YouTube so I was wondering if anyone here would be able to advise me if this is a good guitar?

If I'am barking up the wrong tree with this, please do say.

Well, les paul is a great guitar. but I dont think its a good idea to get a Gibson guitar as you first guitar, becuse its 2 expensive...

so I think you'll have to chose a Epiphone like:

1. Epiphone les paul 100 or les paul special - the chepest les paul guitars you can get, there nice but not too good.
2. Epiphone les paul studio - I think this is a great choise as a first guitar, its just great and not too expensive.
3. Epiphone les paul standard (or les paul coustom) - thats really a great guitar, a bit expensive but if you have the money this guitar is awsome!!!

now my first choise of a guitar was a "Squier start" , Its not expenive at all and its a great first guitar! Im having fun with it.

Im sory about my english if there are some english problems here

Lol, yeah I've seen the Gibson prices and thought immediatly 's***t! .

Actually, TBH, out of curiosity I did start to look at one of Gallaghers guitar...until I realised that one was something like £1000+. Nice.

Thanks for the advice though .

no problem, I think the best idea is to go to a guitar shop and just take what YOU like (and have the money lol)
